Tires

I have 17" eagle alloy rims, on Nankang tires

well my tires are coming apart... supposedly i take corners to fast... HA!

well what is a good - inexpensive brand of tires? I might just get them rotated, my front tires are worne down... way down, and my rear are jut okay, would getting them rotated matter? Or woud it just last as long as I didnt "take corners to fast"?

Yes, it would. But once you wear those out too, then you need brand new set of tires. Also, it might not be you taking corners too fast, and you taking corners wrong. But if you know how to take corners right, then you must be taking a lot corners. Hehe.

Maybe this is your problem. Try a set of more expensive tires first and see if they last longer.

Try www.tirerack.com or www.discounttire.com

Both places will have a huge selection for you to choose from. Read the tire reviews available from those websites and see what other people have to say about any tire you are considering.
